Secretary of State Henry Kissinger was expected to attend, but weather conditions made it difficult for his plane to land at Wilkes-BarreScranton Airport, so he continued on to to Washington, DC. The guests enjoyed a lunch of made-to-order omelets, shrimp salad, mushrooms, crepes, grits souffle, chicken livers in wine sauce and a variety of cheeses and fresh fruits. For dessert, they could indulge in a sundae bar. "It was like someone took a warm blanket and spread it all over," Bailey said.
